I see the Pistons beating a worn out Spurs team, but I see Dallas beating the Pistons. Laugh now, but look at their track record against each other. Dallas has a decided edge in recent seasons including a 37 point thrashing earlier in the season where Dallas gave Detroit their first loss. Then Dallas went into Detroit with a severely depleated roster and almost beat them on their own floor. Dallas will also be seasoned by a tough Western Conference playoffs and will come into that series with some serious momentum. If Dallas beats the Spurs, Dallas will take the trophy.

I think Dallas has the youth and athleticism to give the Pistons a better series than the Spurs (even though I love my team) but if they do meet them, its going to be interesting to see if the Mavs can play physical w/ that frontline and it would be a compelling matchup to see Dirk go against Prince.
